Romeo was quite street-smart for his age. He then chuckled playfully as he replied, "Come on. I saw the way you were looking at him in the main hall. That's a look of love.""Quit it!"Circe stomped her feet, crying out in indignance as she flushed even more.She then raised a hand to slap Romeo.Romeo dodged at top speed before saying solemnly, "Hey, hey, don't be angry. If you ask me, Darryl Darby might be a great hero, but he's no match for you."Circe stopped at the words, huffing out an exasperated laugh. "You little devil. Alright, who would be a match for me, then?Romeo had been waiting for the question all along. He chuckled lightly, hopping onto a rock nearby and thumping his chest. "Haha! Me, of course. Don't worry. I'll be sure to throw a grand wedding when I grow older and wed you with glory."Romeo's expression was nothing but solemn as he spoke.Circe's face flushed at his response before she burst out laughing. "Gosh, you're really too much. I'll be old by the t
Upon entering the cave, the bugs formed a circle around Yusof before spraying him with their poison.Anyone would be scared out of their wits if they were to witness something like that.Almost ten thousand insects secreted their venom onto one person. It was a jaw-dropping sight, one that exceeded one's imagination.Whoosh!The liquid venom evaporated into a poisonous fog, which Yusof absorbed completely.Upon doing so, his pale face regained a little color as his powers increased as well…Indeed, that was the most terrifying part of his cultivation method. It did not require personal cultivation, and absorbing poison from venomous bugs alone was enough to restore one's powers.Romeo and Circe were walking in a line a few hundred meters away from the cave.Circe's expression was both exasperated and anxious. "Come on. Let's go back."Romeo put on a pitiful expression. "My dear Senior Sister, you know Master's going to punish me, and still, you're insisting on bringing me back
Yusof stopped short at the sight of the pair.The next second, he returned to his senses with an evil smile. "I was wondering who it was, and it turns out to be the great Lange beauty."His gaze bore holes into Circe's curves as he spoke, practically drooling at the mouth. Circe bit her lip, hardly able to contain her rage as she sensed Yusof's stare."You shameless bastard! I'll see just how far you can run today."He had ambushed her back when she was with Chester and the rest. It humiliated her greatly, and she was positively quaking with fury at the sight of him.However, Circe did not let her anger get to her head too much.That man was evil and ruthless. Judging from all the venomous bugs he lured, he was sure to have restored a good amount of his powers, and it was best to be careful.Yusof did not panic as he sensed Circe's rage, instead beaming at her."Tsk, tsk. Oh, darling Circe, what fate we must have to meet again so soon. I've got you to thank, actually. If you ha
Romeo roared, "Trying to run?! Do you think you can get away?"Romeo exploded toward Yusof like a lightning bolt as the words rang through the air.Romeo had only been captured at the ancient tomb because he had been careless and had been waiting for a chance to take revenge on Yusof. Since he had the chance, there was no way he would let Yusof run away.The pair were quite fast, disappearing into the woods in a matter of seconds."Junior Brother!"Circe cried out at the sight, hurrying to catch up. However, the woods were thick and dense, and the pair was nowhere to be seen.All at once, Circe was both anxious and angered.Romeo was really such a pain in the neck.More importantly, Yusof was pretty skilled at his venom cultivation method and was known for his cunning and ruthless ways. Despite his skills, Romeo had little experience in the wandering world, and he would not be a match for Yusof.The thought made Circe panic even more, and she cried out loudly as she chased in
What?Darryl took a deep breath, pondering to himself.Empress Heidi was truly not to be messed with. She had probably decided to take matters into her own hands after Master Magaera's prolonged disappearance.If that was the case, the Godly Region had to have undergone a whirlwind of changes. Darryl would have to take a look for himself if it went on.To tell the truth, Darryl did not wish to partake in any more battles for power since he returned from the Keyheart Continent. However, the Godly Region was different as it affected the safety of civilians worldwide.Empress Heidi was a power-hungry and ruthless woman, and she would surely take down Darryl if she were to gain control over the Godly Region. The Nine Continents would surely collapse under her reign.Aurin had been ambushed by Master Magaera and reduced to a sliver of spirit. Darryl was the Royal Master and could not stand by and watch it unfold.That was why he had to stop her at all costs.Darryl's expression dark
Yusof's gaze darted around before an idea came to his head. He stopped in his tracks right next to the lake.Following that, Yusof called out to Romeo. "You're pretty good, young man. I can't run anymore."As he spoke, Yusof hid his hands behind his back and pricked one of his fingers, squeezing a drop of blood into the water.He learned that move while cultivating—to control wild beasts with a combination of cultivating and his own blood, using it to aid in taking down enemies.Romeo's footsteps slowed upon seeing Yusof stop. He slowly took one step after another to Yusof, his expression cold and arrogant. "Not running? Get down on your knees and prepare to die."His voice was not loud, but it left no room for retaliation.'Motherf*cker!'Yusof's gaze flashed at Romeo's words, anger flaring up in his chest.F*ck!To think that someone as great as him was being mocked by a mere child… How humiliating.However, the child was really quite powerful. Nothing good would come out o
"Take this, you brat."Before Romeo could catch his balance, Yusof roared out angrily. He lifted a hand, casting a blow toward Romeo's back.The brat's attention was completely on the water python, and it was the perfect chance for a surprise attack.Romeo could hardly contain his shock and anger at the blow, turning to glower at Yusof. "You… You imbecile…"Despite being very young, Romeo understood that Yusof's obedience earlier had all been an act.Romeo wanted to duck upon roaring angrily, but Yusof's blow was far too powerful, and he did not have a single chance.Thump!The next second, the blow landed harshly on Romeo's back. He let out a dull hum, his petite figure flying through the air.It was only after flying over ten meters that Romeo landed hard on the ground."Ugh…"Romeo spat out fresh blood as he landed, his childish features paling.Romeo turned to glower at Yusof. "You absolute bastard."He had never thought the man would be cunning enough to pretend to sub
Indeed, those were pupils of the Elixir Sect.Upon realizing that, Yusof dashed over. He grabbed a handful of mud from the ground and smeared it on his face before running toward the pupils.While running, Yusof pretended to look terrified as he shouted, "Help, help! That kid's gone insane, killing people as he pleases! Help, help!"Yusof was a cunning man and knew that Romeo had gone mad with rage. It would make him gullible enough.The Elixir Sect pupils looked over at once.They were not very far from the Elixir Sect, and the pupils had left the mountain to pick some herbs they needed when they ran into Romeo and Yusof.The pupils looked at each other as Yusof ran over, covering him behind them at once and beginning to question him."What's going on?""Who's killing people?"Because Yusof had covered his face with dirt, the Elixir Sect pupils could not recognize him and thought he was a normal passerby.Yusof took a deep breath, pointing at Romeo behind him with a terrifie
